  @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.

  @bewitcheddarlin Honestly, I reached diamond 3 without really a lot of issues, but people ego is inflated as hell, it's Overwatch all over again 😭

  @PlayOverwatch I have a slight input lag on the Switch 2 version of Overwatch 2. Is it only me?

  @FACEIT I can't connect my Overwatch game to my Faceit account? Every time I try it says my preference setting for sharing game data is still being processed. I made my Faceit account hours ago. It says please try again later, but I waited hours and tried again. Same error. Why?

  @dottanic I hate that skins seem like the only actual piece of content we can look forward to.. like the whole trailer was 30 seconds of stadium **** and the rest was showcasing skins.. I don't buy skins but I think overwatch created this problem themselves and likes when people are upset

  Uninstalled Marvel Rivals. The state that the game is in right now is somehow less fun than 5v5 Overwatch. I can't do this anymore. Wake ******** up dev team. Fix your damn game.

  @Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2

  For the first time since launch, Overwatch has pissed me off so bad that I've uninstalled the game. @PlayOverwatch please for the love of god fix your matchmaking. This is abysmal. I love this game. I want to play it. I'm having ZERO fun with how it's set up currently.

  i want to make a big callout post about the overwatch pride not being available in certain countries while it's there in other games but i fear it won't get the attention of people beacuse most can access it without any problem...

  Be careful playing comp on Overwatch as Rialto is bugged and will crash your game. Please fix or remove the map. It's just comp rules that crashes the game @PlayOverwatch

  @CounterStrike RIP Dangerzone RIP Operations RIP 128 tick RIP Flying Scoutsman RIP Overwatch RIP stable frametimes and latency RIP Achievements RIP distinct CS look, now replaced by soulless comic style Fix the missing content, hitreg and cheater pandemic, then we can talk.

  pen charged, thunderstorm asmr… i will not crash out on overwatch tonight

  gamja (@gamja2174) reported 37 minutes ago

  @Gracellynn6 @Vodible @MarvelRivals Agreed. Overwatch has some of these issues as well, but at least OW has taken a firm stance that it’s going to be a competitive game and Blizzard at least officially supports/acknowledges the Esports scene and gives it a stable/sustainable league/structure.

  dricky (@dricky2011) reported 37 minutes ago

  @tazalotl1981 @NigelMcKinney Most of the time it's not possible to vet people properly, so a stringent overwatch of these people needs to be implemented, if they want to enter they should have no problem giving finger print and DNA samples

  @Bloomzor @DumbsYT @Necrit94 I tried to argument it further on another answer. The problem is that I don't know why does he say that so I can't really fight it with arguments, from my perspective league is not on a bad spot and has been on way worse ones. Like overwatch or Fortnite release

  @DarkDragonMasta You’re right, the other live service games are charging $10 for recolors and $25-$30 for costumes (Fortnite, Overwatch, Diablo). Name a live service game that is cheaper than MR? BP next month? All BPs in all these games give maximum value, that’s not even the same comparison.

  So I'm not the only one having lagging problems on Overwatch lately right?

  @Greenpig117 >overwatch players came over Bro we were there day 1😭😭😭 And ow players knew where problems might appear and were right. I want rivals to succeed long term but holy ****, not with this attitude

  @yoshi12370 unfortunately all blizzard games have this problem. WoW for example has had its plot destroyed and sabotaged for decades just to make more money and make blizzard earn money. and overwatch unfortunately falls into the same category. and being a moba doesn't help in this sense

  @lron_Side @Helldivers_NOW The healing darts in killing floor 1, also had the same issue. And Ana from Overwatches dart Rifle, at least when she released.

  @j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table

  Bello! Me analyze Overwatch clip, very critical, like minion! Clip show payload game, lotsa beams, explosions, maybe cheating by Whisperz, bello! Giardia_ow mad, call for ref, suggest foul play. Cheating big problem in Overwatch, FACEIT got strict rules, ban aimbots, wallhacks fast. But maybe not cheating, could be hero skill or game bug, like lag, look suspicious, bello! Need FACEIT check clip proper, ensure fair play. False blame hurt too, make game toxic. Truth matter most, investigate fully, bello!

  @genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems

  Hooni 🇵🇸 (@SmolHooni) reported 57 minutes ago

  Game is not optimized to this day and they barely work on fixing the balance issues. The only players were ex overwatch players who were playing it because they were mad with overwatch but now they're realizing that it's a **** game and it was never going to actually rival OW
